The Bible is the monk's book. The thought and teaching of St Bernard of Clairvaux was so saturated with Scripture that the reader often cannot decide where the Bible ends and Bernard begins. From direct quotations to fine allusions, Bernard assumed that his readers were as familiar with the Bible as he was himself. It is therefore no wonder that Bernard chose a book of the Bible, the Song of Songs, as a vehicle for expressing his deepest and most personal longing for God, his striving for 'full knowledge, clear vision, a strong bond of union, a relationship which cannot be broken apart, and perfect likeness'.Michael Casey, a Cistercian monk in Australia, writes from the same tradition that formed St Bernard. His study of the background and teaching of 'the last of the Fathers' provides insights into the saint's works and gives them contemporary meaning.

This book details my first-hand experience in Israel, the persecution of the Jews, the current conflict in Israel and the Middle East. When the president of Iran openly declared his intent to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, many people in the West was shocked. But such a threat should come as no surprise. Since the time of Abraham, Satan has used nations to try to destroy Israel and wipe them off the face of the earth. There is a current tense situation throughout the World. Israel is God's special place. This is a story of redemption, as well as the significance of all Jews to that story. This is the urgency in sounding a warning about the persecution of the Jews.
